24 Events up to the Conflict in Bagua, Amazonas (I) Native Communities challenged first the constitutionality LD 1090 Their concerns were channeled within the framework of the law; i.e., through the Congressional Committees. Subsequently, they challenged the amendment of LD 1090, i.e. Law 29317, notwithstanding their participation in the amendment process Between Jan. and June 5, 2009, natives communities used two channels of communication: (i) Congressional committees and (ii) direct dialogue with the Executive Branch Prospects in Congress were not very promising until very late when Constitutional Committee of Congress approved the Minority report of unconstitutionality but its discussion by the Plenary was postponed to permit direct dialog
25 Events up to the Conflict in Bagua, Amazonas (II) The dialogue with Executive did not prosper either. There were several attempts to open the dialogue. In parallel, the native communities positions started to radicalize and started taking over highways and disrupting productive activities In view of the increased disruptions, the government empowered by the Constitution declared the state of emergency in the regions of conflict. It was only on May 26 that a formal dialogue could be established after over 50 days of strikes. AIDESEP led by its coordinator Mr. Pizango participated in the discussions. However, after two sessions, Mr. Pizango left the table and called for further radicalization, including a request for full autonomy and insurgency. On June 5, the Government calls on the Police to restore law and order. In the event, 24 policemen and 10 civilians died, with most of the the policemen being killed in cold blood.
26 Government s Assessment of the Events and Response (I) We acknowledge that the DL 1090 was not consulted with the principals of the native communities because it was believed that it was not against but in favor of them. It is now clear that the interlocutors for the dialogue were not representative and had a hidden political agenda not consistent with the concerns of the native communities. There was widespread and concerted misinformation and political interference both domestic (from the nationalist party) and external (particularly from President E. Morales and some ministers from Bolivia and Venezuela) who called for radical measures to destroy the Peruvian development model for the Amazon, to weaken the democracy, and ultimately to bring down the government There was also a miscalculation in believing that there were only natives protesting and not criminal elements ready to create chaos and ignite an armed confrontation
27 Government s Assessment of the Events and Response (II) In view of the above, the Government took the following actions: Asked the public law institutions, the Ombudsperson, and the Red Cross to verify the number of casualties, injured, and people temporarily and voluntarily displaced from their communities. Invited the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights and fundamental freedoms of indigenous people to evaluate the situation Set up an expanded Working Group to discuss an integral and sustainable development alternative for the Amazon region that takes int account the views of all the population of the area, including the natives. Postponed the implementation of LD 1090 and Law and restore the Law and 27308, with the concurrence of all parties supporting the development model, except for the Nationalist party. Submitted to Congress a request for the abolishment of the legal norms under question which is currently debated by Congress.
28 Native Communities Response Mr. Pizango sought and obtained political asylum by the Nicaraguan Embassy and subsequently obtained free passage to Nicaragua. He refused to be interrogated by the Special Prosecutor on charges of promoting rebellion, among others Following the suspension of effectiveness of LD 1090 Law 29317,the Prime Minister agreed with several elected representatives of Native communities to participate in the Working Group and to help restore public order and to invite AIDESEP to join. In addition, there was agreement that the police acted responsibly. Following this agreement, AIDESEP has called on its members to help restoring order.
29 Final Remarks Regrets the loss of lives Stands ready to prepare new legislation to protect and promote a sustainable development of the Amazon region for the benefit of all Peruvians Will take necessary actions to seek an appropriate reconciliation of the various interests of all the civil society groups involved Believe it is important that this process is undertaken within the frame of the law, with due respect to democratic principles, and in a peaceful manner.
